Re: Random Map Generation

Yeah, I understand that. I was just hoping there was a centralized location where you can learn about the general basis of the process of map seed generation. I know there are minor specific implementation details on certain types, like tile map generation, but I would like a broader view on the sub...

Random Map Generation

Hello, Recently I've been trying to tackle random map generation myself. After many headaches, an abundance of failed attempts, and half a week gone to nothing, I decided to start researching the subject. The problem is I cannot find a very good source to start reading from. If you have any resource...

Re: C# port of the Chili DirectX Framework V12.04.24 (SFX)

@Nicro:

My comment was not aimed at you and please don't take it like such. You were curious about implementation of the framework in C#, that is all.

@Asimov:

I'd like to point out two things: 1) deprecated 2) engine itself written in C++. That should be enough for my argument :)

I feel your pain.

At least now we know who would succeed and who would fail if they were to try and make game programming a career.

Re: My Little Puzzle game

Never really thought about it, I'll look up some algorithms for it. You have to make sure the outcome would work too, and if the puzzle is solvable with the given information.

Re: C# port of the Chili DirectX Framework V12.04.24 (SFX)

I'll go slightly more in-depth with what I was thinking, as I would really like to see something like this around! 1. You load the program and it allows you to select a resolution. 2. Then you select grid sizes (how many rows and columns, basically). 3. Then you select single image files or a sprite...

Re: C# port of the Chili DirectX Framework V12.04.24 (SFX)

Good, I'm not as bad as I thought! Despite this being a forum dedicated to games, other projects are very welcomed. If you have anything else created with C# you would like to share, please do! A great example would be a map editor. You could allow people to choose their own images or sprite sheets ...

Re: C# port of the Chili DirectX Framework V12.04.24 (SFX)

No significant titles that rely on thousands to millions of calculations per frame to predict AI movements, player input, network procedures, graphics updating and rendering, and an abundance of other things will use a managed language. That is the great significance of using C++. Sure, if you write...
